I think the whole of conventional mathematics is inconvenient, awkard and what have you.
Far more superior is the "Galactic mathematics' or "Vedic mathematicas".
For a lot of people it seems like a bag of tricks. However, when one starts working within this system it feels creative , elegant and very very efficient.
You can do math from simple aritmatic to Calculus and 'difficult' differential equations etc

starting with aritthmetic.

What is:

75 x 75=?
38 x 32=?
13 x 11=?
2312/9=?


Try to do this and then I wil show the Vedic or Galactic Mtah method.
